A simulation doesn't have to be the actual thing. It implies it literally isn't the true thing, which is kind of what you're saying.

Simulated Intelligence is certainly more accurate and honest than Artificial Intelligence. If you have a better term, what is it?

Is that available somewhere?

Yeah I found the poster's advice worked well. I.e. hold your finger between your eyes and the image and start focussing on your finger and them drop it away as the dots approach. It made me realize I wasn't normally crossing my eyes (for say, magic eye images), I was looking past the image and kind of uncrossing my eyes.

With these ones, they definitely work by crossing your eyes.

That's so weird, I always thought I was crossing my eyes when doing this...

Nah it's just if-then-elses all the way down

I'm dead 😭 (and it just gets better from there)

I remember doing half to full day interviews back in the '00s.

This isn't new.

A-10 Tank Killer was the bomb.

Any chance of bringing this one back? It doesn't seem to be working.

Edit: Nevermind, seems the problem is on my end.

I wonder if 3d printed driver tips would be better for matching the material strength and reduce stripping. Or maybe they wouldn't have enough strength at all and would just twist and fall apart.

I was also wondering how well printing drywall anchors would work.

Thanks! I didn't know about that community.

TLDR: 3.11 is twice as fast as 3.10 at doing global name lookups, so an old speedup hack of aliasing a global function locally isn't needed.

For example, when calling len() in a loop, going l=len, and calling l() in the loop was faster in 3.10. In 3.11, moreso in 3.13, it's almost a wash.

However, the author says this:

Accessing functions through a module [e.g. math.sin()] or a deep attribute chain can still carry overhead. Creating a local alias or using "from module import name" continues to be effective in those situations.

But when I look at the numbers, I would say 3.13 is pretty close to making it an unnecessary optimization in general. A little subjective on how you interpret the numbers.

Great info, but this was like trying to use a recipe and reading the author's life story to get there.

Monopolies will do that.

I guess they shouldn't have privatized hydro after all...

Or fatalities per drive-thru daiquiri bar

I hadn't heard about that, very cool.

No sense crying over spilt milk. Just buy another one! It's only property.
